Mayor Francisco Azcué submitted a draft Ordinance to the Honorable Deliberative Council to declare an administrative, financial, food, and road emergency within the Municipality of Concordia as a consequence of the severe economic, financial, and inflationary crisis that is severely affecting resources.
Among the arguments for said request, it is highlighted that the economic and financial situation of our country has been causing, for some time now, serious damage to the coffers of municipalities, which see their resources diminished in a constant and systematic way,” noting that “the previous municipal government administration managed economic resources in a frankly questionable manner with immeasurable lack of control over spending.”
Given this, “it is essential to provide the Executive Branch with the necessary tools to provide responses in a timely and appropriate manner to those urgent needs that will arise day by day as a consequence of the current situation.”
SCOPE
The main objective of the request to declare an administrative, financial, food, and road emergency is to “promote administrative efficiency, guarantee financial solvency and fiscal balance, address the food urgency of residents in situations of economic vulnerability, ensure the construction and maintenance of paved and unpaved streets and curbs, and implement with the necessary urgency any other measures that are necessary and conducive in order to continue providing excellent services to the residents of Concordia.”
Furthermore, it will suspend the entry of new agents into the permanent staff during the term of the emergency. Likewise, the drafting of new contracts with and without contributions, except in exceptional cases when duly justified circumstances exist and provided that it involves filling vacancies.
Authorize the Executive, by way of exception and during the validity of the emergency, to carry out direct contracting of consumer and/or capital goods and services that are necessary to address the food and road emergency within the framework of the current critical situation.
